I am truly fascinated with Foggy days. Few days ago when a cricket match between "India and South Africa" was abandoned due to #Fog, I was wondering, when to see the fog in my region. For many people the sight of 'Fog' means more cold. They usually avoid to go out. There are few morning walkers and also fee vehicle on the road. But there is something special about #Fogs that I like most which keeps me wandering in the hazy morning.
In winter, the air cools and the moisture (water vapor) in it condenses into tiny water particles that float in the air; this is called fog.
The foggy days can occur especially during morning. The reason I am fascinated to it because it gives the atmosphere a mysterious and serene feel, making the views appear hazy and magical. It brings freshness and coolness to the morning. The view may be inspirational to artists and writers, and allows us to experience the beauty of nature.
There is a dual aspect of fog too. The fog can be inspirational but it also result in creating chaos for many. Sometimes the dense fog reduces the visibility creating difficulties for cars, trains and airplanes, making it an interesting challenge to maneuvers either on road, rail or air. We already had our foggy accident near Delhi where number of vehicle piled up due to low visibility caused by extreme fog. Today, I had our first fog of the seasons and I really went out to cherish it.
Fog often comes with cold and humidity, making people prefer to stay in a cozy and warm place, but not in my case. I like to enjoy the serene atmosphere in the new look. I wrapped up myself with woolen clothes, scarfs, caps and went out to stroll. To enjoy the weather, I started capturing the scene outside. It was 8AM there was no sun, and everything is covered in white smoke haze. The trees, the birds and even the soccer field.
The more I walk, the more I able to see the landscape. When the fog rolls in, it obscures the familiar landscape, turning it into a, mysterious, or dreamlike place. The fog represents a momentary stop in the daily rush, forcing a stillness in the environment. To me, the fog did more than hide the landscape, it silenced it. For a few hours, the world felt smaller, quieter, and entirely my own.
In good faith - Peace!!
